LANDING GEAR’S TORSION LINK

grabcad

This was my final year college project that I worked on. The idea was to promote Generative Design and showcase its uses in the modern age.The paper proposes a design optimization of aircraft landing gear torsion link using Generative design on one of the most used aircraft in general aviation. Generative design is a new method of product development and innovation. This approach to torsion link innovation leads to reduce in the time spent developing prototypes along with reduced weight, improved performance, and part consolidation. Catia V5 and Fusion 360 software are used for 3D modeling and generative design of the landing gear torsion link. This academic research comprises a CAD design of Airbus a380-800's main landing gear torsion link. The aim used for this paper is to research the functionalities of the main landing gear torsion link for the defined shimmy for underlying condition and to execute structural, fatigue, modal and multibody analysis. The model is analyzed in ANSYS and Mathworks with different designs obtained from generative design and further discussion on the optimization is done.To read the complete research paper visit - https://lnkd.in/frJhRCS
